up to -40mm should be ok, 60 big no no, get the shocks uprated.
I have just done -35mm on 14's and replaced wanky standard shocks for GSi shocks just to be safe. Not quite same as u asked for, but here is mine:

Try and get a suspension kit mate - with shocks and springs included. You can use standard shocks, but the ride wont be as good, and they will wear out very quickly on lowering springs. A lot of people on here slag off GMAX btw, altho I have just put these on my car, and also know a lot of people who have used them for ages with no problems

GSi shocks are slightly stiffer than the standard ones I think

Ul bounce like fcuk on standard shocks with low lowering springs! And then ul bugger up the shocks pretty quickly - the standard shocks are designed for the standard springs. Uprated shocks that are available, are designed for uprated/lowering springs
